Welcome To The 12 Saws Of Christmas

[Red97]

590 or 357/9.....

Probably start my build sooner than later... Get it done then shelve it for a few months....

Get it done then shelve it for a few months....

No shelving.

Mod, test and tune, repeat...until you have attained maximum performance.

 

[jmssaws]

I'm more of a last minute kind of guy.

 

[jmssaws]

If I started on one now I'd wear it out taking it apart before Christmas.

That is where the shelving comes in, build a couple other saws in between. To spark some ideas for the Christmas saw.

If I started on one now I'd wear it out taking it apart before Christmas.

And this too.

If anybody is thinking black and red, I've got a minty jred 630 piston and cylinder that needs a new home.

 

[lwhaples]

Wow! 5 pages before I figure what's going on. Getting old and can't keep up,I guess.

 

[mdavlee]

I thought of inviting you but I figured you was old St.Nick and already was involved

Me too actually.

I've settled on a MS360.

I'll be trying to build mine in summer. Probably have it built and shelved til xmas. Fall gets real busy for me if it's like last year I was gone from Sept til Dec 19th.

 

[Deets066]

I've got a few saws to finish up before I start on mine. No time lately

I tossed it out there. I don't know if it's too old. I have some experience with them.and plenty of parts. If you guys think it's worthy let me know.

I was thinking 036. But they seem popular.

I may try a 261/2 but they have been done to death.

I kinda thought about a 357/9 got some thoughts but I'm light on some parts. If your flush with 357/359 let me know.

I would be very interested in building a ms 361.

Haha decisions decisions.

Either way, it's here. If I was building a race saw, I'd go 562. But it's 30 year old red-headed cousin in soooo damn sexy

 

[drf256]

Damn. I'm 034.

Would be cool to see how a few of us approach the same platform.

Maybe next year it will be "The 12 044's of Chistmas". Kinda like IROC racing. Please refrain from the Itaian American comments.

David I just picked up a 361 last week with a scored piston. I haven't looked further yet. If your interested let me know.

I'll try but you really t'd that one up

 

[rburg]

The 630 should be a strong runner. I had a 625 and a 670 and they were both good saws, but I never got to run a 630. I believe the 630 is heavier than the 60cc saws that are current but probably just as powerful.

 

[Stihlbro]

Did I hear someone say 361 ???

I kinda feel the same way about a 575 - it's mid 90's vintage - but they are so well made, handle so good, and look good!

I can do 357/359 parts...

Build the 962 and 575. Give away the faster one and give us two builds.
